gus in idaho Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Hello All,Well finally after a long hot summer, I got to go detecting for gold for the first time in about 3 months.The trip was fantastic. It was great to break away from town and get back out into the great wide open of the Nevada desert. The cool breeze on my face, and a breath of fresh air was a reminder that fall is just around the corner my freinds, and my favorite time of year for swinging my trusty Gpx-4000 is here.Fortunatly I have a few more weekends marked on the calander for the next couple of months. When this fun weekend had to come to a close I had 11 nuggets, and my Father found 4.Gus-16 Grams, the bigest weighs 5.8 gramsDads take just under 7 grams.

matt Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Nice gold Gus! How long were you out there? Was this a old patch or a new one? Was this the first time out there with your GPX? Those sure are some nice looking gold nuggets. Take care.Cheers,matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gus in idaho Posted September 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Hey Matt,We spent 3 days out there, and we hunted both in old locations and new.This is my second year with the GPX, and I fall in love with it even more with each adventure. Take care,Gus- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted September 3, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 Hey Gus, It's great to hear you and your Father share the same great hobby. My Father has no interests in gold hunting ... tried several times to get him to come out, but he loves his Sports and Hunting much better! Congrats once again for a great showing of gold for only a couple 2-3 days. Sure would love to get back to Nevada, just been so tied down here. Thanks for sharing your finds and story.
